This step is part of the traditional preparation for a mutton Keema Recipe, as described in the instruction: Pyaas Bhunna: Ek pan ya karhai mein oil garam karein aur usme bareek kati hui pyaas daal kar golden brown hone tak fry karein.
  2. Add Aromatics: Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and chopped green chilies. Sauté for about 1–2 minutes until the raw smell disappears.Add Mutton Keema: Add the mutton mince into the pan. Break up any clumps with a spoon and fry the keema well on medium-high heat for 5–7 minutes until it changes color and releases its natural moisture.
    Spice it Up: Lower the heat and add the red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix the spices thoroughly with the mince and cook for 2–3 minutes.
  3. Add Tomatoes & Yogurt: Add the chopped tomatoes and whisked yogurt. Stir well, cover the pan, and let it simmer on medium-low heat for about 10–12 minutes so the tomatoes soften and the mutton keema cooks in its own juices.
